Another thought: Would be still ship the FAQ in the release tarball? That
might be a bit weird if it is not maintained in the source code repository.

I think I consider the FAQ to be more of a web resource, to be read before you
install PostgreSQL, so the thought of not shipping the FAQ doesn't bother me
too much, but others might not like it.

Looks good to me.

Actually, I expect that the Developer_FAQ will mostly disappear over time and
devolve to a list of links to other places in the wiki, eventually being
merged with or replaced by the Development_information page.
